Heritage in Every Stitch: Fabric of Our Future

This textile heritage project, part of the CARS initiative, celebrates the rich history of the Scottish Borders’ textile industry while fostering creativity and skill development among the next generation at Hawick High School.

Working with donated fabrics from local mills, pupils designed textile items and created jackets that honour the region’s traditions.

This exhibition of the resulting work is a vibrant showcase of youthful creativity combined with heritage,  serving as both a tribute to the area’s past and inspiration for the future.
